Beirut, Lebanon – The cash-strapped United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees has warned it is facing a “race against time” as it appealed for emergency funding in order to provide vital services for some 210,000 vulnerable people in crisis-hit Lebanon.
“The situation is extremely serious and the crisis will continue,” Claudio Cordone, director of the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) Affairs in Lebanon, told reporters in Beirut on Wednesday.
